Community Recs Post!

[glitteryv]

Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool fanvids/fics/fanarts/podfics/fancrafts/some other kind of fanwork have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled

FANART

* A walk with the Jeon fam by vanteandante - V. cute cartoon-like piece featuring Jungkook walking Bam, Song, Paeng, and Gureum.


* V hyung by bwijelly - This is based on the 03/07/22 vlive featuring Seokjin, Taehyung, Jungkook, and Hobi in which Seokjin accidentally called Taehyung "V hyung" and "V hyungie". Taehyung's reaction (pulling Seokjn towards him and kissing the top of his head) is immortalized in this sweet fanant.


* love. by OneEightO - a quiet moment of Yoongi playing the piano that was inspired from a recent Bangtan Bom during the filming of the "Permission to Dance" mv. I really like the color palette in this piece.


* Our Judo boy by pencil2019 - A neat series of doodles featuring Taehyung and Jimin practing judo based on an Instagram post in which Taehyung's practicing judo with a teacher.


FICS

* Ink & Ivory by albinococonut23 (Mature, Yoongi/RM/Hobi, background Taehyung/Jimin, 82k) - An AMAZEBALLS FIC set in the Idol world but NOT featuring BTS as we know them. #Oooooh

Yoongi gets an offer to write a song for a v. popular pop duo. He's not doing too well and wishes he could still be close to his former songwriting partner. Meanwhile, he befriends his dogsitter (who is not only tremendously hot, but also knows a bit or two abt writing songs. Huh…)

So, okay, by this point, y'all know my usual "I'm a slow reader/I get tired after reading anything over 20k/I love longer ficS but it takes me ages to finish THEM" song and dance. WHICH IS LOLARIOUS GIVEN THAT I READ ALL 82K WORDS IN ONE (1) SITTING. It took me almost all night, but I couldn't put it down.

Maybe, after reading the fic's summary, the plot sounds vaguely familiar. This is cuz it's inspired by the 2007 movie Music & Lyrics (which starred Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore.) I've yet to watch that film (somehow never picking it up), so I can assure you that knowing that movie's plot isn't super important to enjoying this fic. Unfortch, because of the same reason, I can't confirm how closely this fic's plot follows the movie's.

What I can attest is that all 3 relationships within the OT3 (Yoongi/RM, RM/Hobi, Hobi/Yoongi) are given equal space and development. Meanwhile, Taehyung/Jimin is deffo a POWER COUPLE.

This is the kind of fic that works for everyone: fans (there are several Easter eggs) and nonfans (it can be enjoyed w/o any canon knowledge) alike. :D
